Some helpful docker commands:

Starting it all up for local development:

docker-compose up

To clear out unused entities:

• docker system prune

This includes stopped containers. Need to compare this to the series of commands below

To clear everything out (good to do on occasion for your dev environment)

1. Stop all containers
   docker stop $(docker ps -a -q)
2. Delete all containers
   docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)
3. Delete all images
   docker rmi $(docker images -q)
4. Remove all volumes
   docker volume prune

Issues

Docker for Windows

• No data / files in the containers: open the docker for windows settings, a look for the shared drives, C:/ should be checked. (This can happen when you switch between using Windows containers and Linux containers.)
